cpg1.5.46 Security release - upgrade mandatory!The Coppermine development team is releasing a security update for Coppermine in order to counter recently discovered vulnerabilities. It is important that all users who run version cpg1.5.44 or older update to this latest version as soon as possible.[more]

For those who may be using phpBB (version >=3.1), here is a beta version of the 'tunnel' that will accept a tunnel from phpBB.See the README.txt file for instructions on installing the CPG plugin and the phpBB extension.

PLEASE NOTE: The tunnel is not compatible with CPG/phpBB3 instances that are already bridged.

I want to thank you for this great work.I think there's a lot of joomla users that are pleased to link their site with joomla.This plugin needs to be integrate in the bridges option of cpg.

I use your tunnel with succes with joomla 3 and cpg 1,5cpg is showed into the joomla wrapper and visual integration is perfect after some settings.I use the "simple" theme for cpg

Instalation was easy, everything is clear in the reas me file.I use the final extract plugin to remove the registration log in functions into cpg.So everything is fine.

Thanks again.

I have some questions please.

- Is it possible to allow more than one joomla user group to access onto cpg with their joomla account, or do I need to setup all joomla groups as a registered child group ?

- I removed with succes the registration message from cpg for non registered access, the log in message from cpg for registered access, both with the help of the final extract plug in.

Is there a way to remove the log out message from cpg (hide this message) for registered access ?Because if you log out from cpg page, you don't log out from joomla.It is a problem for most of users, I think.

- last question, I think cookie life from cpf and joomla are not the same with the tunnel integration.I discovered that I could be still log in into cpg, and automaticly log out from joomla page.I assume I need to modify the joomla cookie life to match it with the cpg/tunnel cookie life, I don't take a look for it by now, may be you have some suggestion about that.

In the Joomla cpgtunnel plugin you should be able to select multiple user groups that will be allowed to 'tunnel' into CPG.

See the bottom of the file, theme.php, in the sample cpg theme that I included with the plugins. Follow the example using $excluded_buttons[].

It may help to use the plugins from the beta that includes phpBB3 (2 posts above). But matching login life is difficult and is likely to not always work. Many hosting sites are now using nginx/varnish or other such variations that cause sessions to end if no access is being made, regardless of any lifetime settings in the app.

I assume, because of my no knowledge of the code I forget something ... may be you will have an idea.I attached the theme.php of the simple theme.If you don't have time to have a look, I will understand, of course.

Everything was fine with the tunnel, but now something is broken, could you help please ?

- I didn't have the domain registration when I did the cpg setting, so I had access to both cpg and joomla with the server adress.- I attached the domain name two days ago, and I changed the setting in both cpg config (url) and joomla config (menu link), and now I have complete access with the domain name.- both plug in enabled and published- same secret phrase and group access- unpublished both plug in and tried with the beta one (with phpbb tunnel) same result.

It don't work, something is broken ...

I cant be loged into cpg from joomla with allready existing user, and when I create a new user, he will not be created in cpg.

If you could help, I will provide you admin acces for both cpg and joomla.I'm still working on the pages, so the site is not alive.

I can confirm that it is still not working (tested with IE and Chrome onto another computer).

When it was working fine, using server adress for both config of joomla and cpg, I created 3 users.These 3 users in joomla was synchronised with the help of the tunnel.So when I try to access to cpg from the joomla link (the one you modified the alias), I don't be loged into cpg.

With these 3 users, if I try lo log into cpg with its direct login adress (domain//galerie/login.php).I can log in with success.

So If now I create a new user in joomla and try access to cpg with the joomla link, I can't be loged.If I try to log in with cpg direct log in adress, I can't, because the new user is not create in cpg tables.

Thant means, tunnel is broken, there's no more synchronisation between joomla and cpg.

* My thoughts.It was perfectly working when settings were made with the server adress, problems come when I attached the domain name.

I think there's a problem with some path somewhere.I modified every path in joomla configuration (from server path to domain path for cache and log files).I modified the joomla link to access cpg via the tunnel (from server adress to domain adress)In cpg, I modified the URL in the admin config.

So what did I forget ?Could it be some path setting somewhere else (in cpg files or cpg table) that don't be modified ?

I really think the problem is here.Whant is you thought please ?

- I will now give a try to the upload plug in you suggested.- then, I will give a try to your old tunnel plug in (the one I used with succes with server adress).

If it doesn't work anymore, and if you see no more solution.Do you thing I should try a complete re-install of the cpg script ?Sure I don't really want to do that, because this is some work ... but if it's the only solution ... is there any chance of succes ?

I love your plug in, this a great feature added to cpg.It makes me mad, I saw it working perfectly, and now I can't make it works.
